DISCLAIMER: These notes are from the defunct k8 project whichprecedes SquirrelJME. The notes for SquirrelJME start on 2016/02/26!The k8 project was effectively a Java SE 8 operating system and as suchall of the notes are in the context of that scope. That project is nolonger my goal as SquirrelJME is the spiritual successor to it.

For SSAProgram settings I have EXTERNINTPROMOTE and EXTERNFLOATPROMOTE
which take would auto promote lower integer values to higher types. However
that can just be done automatically (say if a byte is copied into an integer
register). As I thought of before, integers, floating point, and references
could be in their groups. On another note, I can merge SSAVariable and
SSARegister together as a subclass of some other class. I also need a stronger
type system which can use unsigned values and such of arbitrary size.

Not too sure how I would want to handle program arguments. I suppose there
would just be an implicit set of variables which exist.
